physicians can help us find the solutions. they're after all on the front lines of health care delivery. 97% of medicare beneficiaries see a physician at least once a year. and beneficiaries with chronic conditions see their physician at least monthly. by ordering tests, writing prescriptions and admitting patients to hospitals, physicians are involved in up to 80% of total health care spending. we need physicians to suggest changes to medicare physician payment system that will spur high quality, high value care. i look to today's panelists to offer solutions in both the short-term and long-term. i hope like einstein said they can help us come one a great thought by seeing something differently. we need solutions that will work for both primary care and specialists. and they need to work for beneficiaries with chronic conditions. after all these beneficiaries account for 2/3 of total medicare spending. for your candid and direct suggestions from panelists on how we can better begin to compare and control health care spending.
